"Belarus is not an empire, and Kyrgyzstan is our important partner," the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko said after the bilateral talks with his Kyrgyz counterpart in Bishkek on October 11, 2008.
Lukashenko stressed that Belarus will observe all commitments according to the agreements signed. "Our both countries have a lot in common, such as revolutionary thinking and smart people," Lukashenko added.
The president said that Belarus is ready to develop bilateral cooperation in agriculture. "I hope Kyrgyzstan will be able to meet to our demand. We may refuse purchasing fruit and vegetables from other counties and buy them from Kyrgyzstan. Kyrgyz people are not spoiled and the prices are rather acceptable," the Belarus president noted.
Lukashenko also highly appreciated opening of the Belarus tractor factory in Kyrgyzstan and expressed hope for its successful work for the good of the both countries.
